Process Control
-
I relise this is probably off topic but could someone explain to me what process control is. Say for instance I want to write a program to input\output with a electronic box someone is going to make up which would perform simple tasks through most probably the serial port, what language would I use. Someone suggested that you would need to write it in Process Control is this a language or what. Even a relevent webpage would probably help heaps.:confused:

I think (and this might be widely inaccurate in your case) that process control is a general term for controlling hardware processes (like keeping the waterlevel in a tank between some predefined min and max). I suppose you could use/extend the MSComm ActiveX control to handle the specific hardware you are using... /moliate
